Perspectives: Philanthropy in the New Economy - Resource Center - AFP: "Perspectives: Philanthropy in the New Economy

(Oct. 13, 2009) In the new fundraising landscape resulting from economic recession, one thing is clear: everyone in the organization has a role in philanthropy. Staying flat-footed is simply not an option.

Last month, nonprofit consulting firm CCS brought together 24 CEOs and nonprofit fundraising professionals from 17 institutions in a forum called Philanthropy in the New Economy. The discussion focused on how organizations' views and practices in regards to philanthropy have changed over the past 12-18 months. Participants discussed their biggest challenges in the current environment and shared their strategies for success."
